SBR SYSTEM (Seat
Belt Reminder)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The SBR system warns the
passengers of the front and rear (for
versions/markets, where provided)
seats if their seat belt is not fastened.
The system indicates that seat belts
are unfastened with visual warnings
(warning lights on in the instrument
F0S0565
panel and icons on the display) and/or
an acoustic warning (see the following
paragraphs).
NOTE Contact a Fiat Dealership to
deactivate this acoustic warning
permanently. The acoustic warning can
be reactivated at any time through the
display Setup Menu.
Front seat belt warning light
behaviour
When the ignition device is turned to
MAR, the warning light ((A) fig. 98
for the TFT panel or (A) fig. 99 for the
Comfort panel) comes on for a few
seconds, regardless of the status of the
front seat belts.
With car moving slower than 20 km/h,
if the driver side seat belt or the
passenger side seat belt (with
occupant seated) is unfastened, the
warning light stays on constantly.
As soon as a speed threshold of
20 km/h is reached, with driver side
seat belt or the passenger side seat
belt (with occupant seated) unfastened,
an acoustic warning is activated
simultaneously with warning light
flashing for about 105 seconds.
Once activated, this indication cycle
stays active for the entire time if the
car is moving faster than 8 km/h or if
reverse gear is not engaged or until the
seat belts are fastened.
If the car speed drops to less than 8
km/h or if reverse gear is engaged
during the warning cycle, the tone
will be interrupted and the warning
light switches on fixed. If the entire
time has not elapsed and reverse gear
is not engaged, the warning cycle is
reactivated as soon as the car speed
exceeds 20 km/h again.
